Hotel Khao Sok & Spa

The facility itself is very nice - clean, comfortable rooms with lots of space and well laid out, landscaping that sets you up for the Khao Sok experience, and excellent meals in the open air restaurant, complete with koi pond! The staff are what sets this property above and beyond pretty much every other hotel I have stayed at. They were friendly, attentive and extremely helpful. When faced with a sick family member on site, the hosts and staff went above and beyond making sure she was comfortable and taken care of. I highly recommend staying at this hotel and experiencing the friendliness for which Thailand is famous!

We loved Khao Sok, and will definitely be returning. After seeing some other accommodations we agreed that this place was the nicest. We had a spacious twin bed room (hut), nice bathroom and generally nice area. Pool was clean and refreshing, and the staff were lovely, although only one seemed to speak English well. I would recommend staying here, is also a great place for kids to visit as there are quite a few activities they would enjoy.

Would have rated a five if we didn't have to spend excessive time in rainy weather trying to find the place. Enjoyed one night only (low season) due to a friends illness elsewhere... would have liked to have stayed longer. Comfortable, a bit of a walk to the room... 'family' bungalows also suitable for two couples as each bedroom has it's own toilet. The place was hard to find though, due mainly to the cell number belonging to the owner who was overseas. No significant identifying notice outside the place as yet, but it is new so it will get there eventually. Bring a tennis racquet in case the weather allows a game on the very good court. Staff children play a great game and more than competition for this mature lad. Pool good value. Good for family although it is not cheap. You get what you pay for though, if you're looking for quality accommodation and genuine accommodating staff. Gardens and surrounds well done.

Firstly the staff here are extremely friendly, helpful and have good English. They learned our names quickly (2 adults 2 kids) and our children loved them immediately and miss them already. The rooms are a little dark but as mentioned in previous reviews, you are in the jungle and anything else would seem odd so this goes well with the environment. Our rooms were very clean, tidy and well maintained with fresh smelling sheets making it very comfortable. There is air con, free standing fans and a very cold fridge stocked with water everyday. The pool is very nice and well maintained. The key to this place however is twofold. The restaurant food was really excellent and so we ate there every night for our 3 nights and is genuinely a very high standard and good value. In this area you might expect to pay less but for us - worth paying a little extra for the talented kitchen staff and wonderful service. The second reason you should stay here is the organised trips. There is a selection of tours inc. elephant rides, boat tours, walking tours etc. and the staff here organise everything for you including towels for lake swimming and lights for the caves. The prices are very good and approved by the national park to ensure you are not over charged which can easily happen. The hotel makes it easy to book and you can be assured good prices (they were the cheapest we found during our research by a good margin). The tours we had were truly excellent including pick up and drop off.
